Default Will C6 wheels fit a C7 Z51???

Anyone know if 18" 19" C6 wheels will fit a C7 Z51? I have seen on the forum where stock 18 19 inch C7 wheels do fit the Z51.

I'm searching for winter wheels and found a set of perfect c6 wheels 18 19 for next to nothing.

I am going to try them and see but before I get around to it wondering if anyone knows if they would fit?

Also I assume drop in C7 sensors and alls well there?

I have a set of c6 cup wheel replicas that I took off my c6 my car was a z51 what I had to do was shim out the wheel about 1/4" to clear the calipers.

I would say the stud went half way into the lug nut I didn't drive the car I just tried the wheel on the front.

Can you share the specifics on the wheel you tried? Any idea about the fit front vs rear?
